We hear "Havana" playing 0:20 - The beautiful, fancy lobby, where winners claim their prizes. 0:40 - Entering the conference room area, where BTS was interviewed 0:46 - a group of 9 TV screens previewing iHeartRadio app commercials 0:55 - closeup of the conference rooms, named after rappers, Drake room shown. Kiki challenge not included 1:04 - a flight of stairs that most likely leads to AM and HD2/HD3 Radio programming studios 1:12 - a glimpse at the cluster manager's office space. 1:26 - Cubicles for program and music directors, which oversee the personalities and curate the music playlists. 1:31 - where Letty B filmed the KIIS Remix before she moved 1:37 - Shortcut to FM/HD1 programming 1:50 - Entering the FM/HD1 studio zone. 2:00 - Real 92.3 (Hip-Hop music programming) 2:20 - Advertising time sales cubicles. Have a business in LA? These are the people to get in touch with. 2:23 - Distant music (Remind Me to Forget) leads us to KIIS-FM (Top 40) 2:30 - KIIS-FM on-air studio, JoJo Wright preparing for the night show 3:00 - On Air with Ryan Seacrest studios, linked to KIIS 3:37 - Syndicated programming/podcast rooms. 3:45 - ALT 98.7 (alternative music) 3:54 - lounge/copy room 3:58 - Approaching 104.3 MYfm (hot AC), where they produce On with Mario Lopez. 4:00 - 104.3 MYfm studio/ Meet Valerie (board operator) 4:15 - proceeds to roast her on camera for over 1,000 subscribers to see in regards to the Ed Sheeran concert 4:22 - regrets it with laughter, moving on with tour 4:30 - as the title suggests, finally arrive at KOST 103.5 (variety programming) 4:35 - Uptown Funk, introduced to co-host 5:00 - How this station makes LA feel good, jumping back and forth between decades of music. Preparing to begin music festival contest. 5:25 - break room, like every office building, radio stations have one too 5:33 - Catering area for soirees and soundspace performances 5:41 - balcony/patio, complete with what looks like a BBQ grill. View of San Fernando Valley. Cars on SR-134, Near Lankershim Bl. 5:55 - AT&T Sound Studio, where NOTD treated some lucky audience members to an acoustic performance. 6:01 - we see 2 U-Verse TVs and some control rooms. 6:40 - Returning to KOST 7:00 - Outro (music fades)

@@MarkWallengren Yes, it definitely is an amazing that you were able to capture something like this. I've always wanted to be on the radio as a Mix show DJ. I was able to get my Mix shows on the radio for about 6 - 8 months on one of the local stations but wasn't able to land it as a permanent position. So I've been researching a lot on how I can be able to have my own station and do whatever I please and be able to offer those that have a strong passion & desire to try something out like this without having to constantly be turned down like myself. And be able to offer it to everyone, (within reason of course).

@MarkWallengren
@MarkWallengren Жыл бұрын
Hi Shane! It’s a board made by Harris around 2000. The promises they made about the technology never worked out (mostly the switcher system that would allow talent to customize your board and then be able to go to any other studio, dial in your account and the board would be set up the way you liked on any Harris board in the facility). Turned out no matter what Harris did it failed. They finally gave up and the company wasted a lot of money. 😢

Actually that room is pretty secure and there’s never an engineer around when you need one. Do to downsizing there aren’t as many around. We’ve got a cluster of eight radio stations and 10 transmitter sites. What remains of an engineering staff are over worked beyond belief. If I ever step foot inside that building ever again I’ll make sure to grab some video of the empty halls and automated audio equipment and processing gear!

They just filed bankruptcy to restructure. Many companies do so. They have been a profitable company almost every quarter since. They are paying the debt down. At least they have a quality app and stations across the country. Just because they are the largest broadcaster across the country doesn’t mean they have to be a punching bag for criticism. Keep in mind that real human beings work hard at these stations and they develop professional programming for everyone to enjoy each day.
